EXCELLENT

One of the best technical books I've ever read.Good technical examples with detailed explainations.

Reaz Hoque and Tarun Sharma have done an excellent job!

This isn't the type of book you'd just pick up on the spur of the moment. But if you're developing component-based software, especially software that's going to be used on the Web, then your ears are already perking up. Programming Web Components is a large tome of a book which focuses on the latest methods of creating and using Web-based software components. Though Programming Web Components covers many topics, it delves deeply into: * The basic concepts of distributed objects * Java fundamantals * JavaBeans, and creating applications with them * ActiveX fundamantals * COM and DCOM * Visual Basic and OLE * Creating ActiveX controls using VB5 * Using JavaBeans with ActiveX * Using VRML and JavaBeans Additionally, the book contains a CD-ROM which is filled with over 100 ActiveX components, the Beans Developer's Kit, IBM's Visual Age for Java, Super Mojo, a MindQ Java tutorial, third party Beans, and more. Programming Web Components teaches you by first explaining the concepts involved, and then the book walks you though an example. After covering the basics, the book then goes into the details that you'll need to create working applications. If you're trying to keep up with emerging Web technologies, starting to learn how to create your own data aware controls, learning about COM objects, or are just interested in how the Web is going to work in the future, you won't be appointed with this book. Reaz Hoque and Tarun Sharma have done an excellent job writing this book. Their work may soon be looked at as another useful component in your Web development library.
